Where do I go from here?

Ridiculous question I know.
But I promise it will be as clear as mud in a few minutes.
Just stay with me here.
So, we finished the 10 day pledge today and we did okay.
It was enlightening and challenging and frustrating all at the same time.
Does that make sense to you?
I'm naturally a "foodie".
Find me a recipe and I will stash it away for the perfect moment.
I'm the one experimenting in the kitchen trying to convince my family that "it's not spicy" as I am gulping mouthfuls of milk to sooth my burning mouth. I have learned through the past 11 years of marriage how to take a recipe and adjust recipe to make a good meal a great meal.
I never thought about if something was processed or how healthy it was.
I was all about the taste.
Now I won't settle until I can have both.
I want my cake and I want to eat it too.
And I know that if I stick with this,I will be able too.

Now the issue.
Big daddy and I have one day,3 meals here before we head off on our mystery anniversary trip and then I'm swept out of my kitchen away from everything I know.
He planned this entire trip.
From the flights to the hotel to the car rental while I am blindfolded with ear buds stuffed in my ears.
I know nothing. I know that we are supposedly going to Iraq (we aren't)
But that's it!
Do you have any idea how exciting this trip will be?!?
Which brings me to my condrumun.
And as stupid as this sounds in my head, how do I maintain "this" out there?
Seriously.
I'm ready to take the next step...but what does it look like when your on a mystery trip?
Where do we go from here?
I will tell you...
Stick to what I know.
Learn along the way.
Laugh at the mistakes and carry on...

We as a family are about to embark on the 100 day real food challenge starting on the 1st of July.
Will you join me? Let's make some mistakes together.
